iStats

iStats is a command-line tool that allows you to easily grab the CPU temperature, fan speeds and battery information on OS X. If you'd like to see more data available feel free to open an issue.

Installation

$ gem install iStats

Note

If you are running an older version of OS X and the install fails you might want to try running this command instead:
sudo ARCHFLAGS=-Wno-error=unused-command-line-argument-hard-error-in-future gem install iStats
